      We've done that. Wall flush mounts work great.

      What do you use to hang it, just lag screws?

      Depends on the material of the wall but yes. We are doing some flush mounts in a few different areas around campus. We are using enclosed "racks" but they are really slim.

              I have no idea where they came from, but we bought a company that had these 4 foot tall enclosed racks on wheels in all of their field offices. they locked front and rear, and were big enough for a mouse, keyboard and monitor to sit on top. with a KVM inside the door. If you have the space, I loved these things. They were durable, enough to live in retail store back rooms, and easy to work on. Similar to this.

                  I used to build racks exactly like that for Wegmans.

                    I have plans to build one out of wood... but at this point, I have no need. No servers here,.. and now - no need.

                        I have models similar to this actually at the main office of this client. But again, not needed or wanted.
